SPECIALIST REMOVALISTS · MELBOURNE
Stone, sculpture and apartment heavy lifting in Southbank
A dense stone piece can be vulnerable to concentrated support, bending or impact. Send images of joins, edges and any existing damage alongside the known weight and dimensions. For a sculpture being relocated during a fitout, identify who will prepare the site and whether crating or a temporary holding position is part of the requested work.
Plan the final position before booking the delivery
Show the route from the approved loading point through the lift and into the room. At the destination, photograph the placement area and measure the space around the base. Tell us whether the piece has separate sections or an existing frame and whether specialist handling instructions are available. Floor protection and access permission should be discussed before the proposed moving day.

Specialist removalists and heavy-item movers in Southbank
For stone, sculpture and apartment heavy lifting, the moving brief needs more than a truck size. JB’s heavy-item removalists assess the item, its support, the Southbank access route and the receiving position. A fragile finish, tight turn or change in level can be as important as the weight.
One heavy item or a coordinated commercial move
Enquire about a single awkward load, heavy furniture or equipment as part of a larger relocation. Our specialist movers can connect lifting and shifting with collection, loading, road transport, unloading and placement, with the agreed responsibilities recorded for both sites.

Discuss your Southbank complete moveEquipment and crew matched to the load
Depending on the assessment, handling stages may involve stair-climbing equipment, gantries, pallet jacks, supported trolleys, forklift handling or a crane-equipped truck. Equipment used in a past project is not automatically suitable for another item or route.
Known weight, construction, access geometry and working space help determine the approach. Where those details are incomplete, JB can explain what further measurements, photos or inspection are needed before confirming the scope, availability and price.

Can a sculpture move include temporary holding before final placement?
Describe the proposed holding location, duration and support requirements. JB can assess the requested stages, with storage, crating and later placement included only where expressly agreed.
What affects the cost of heavy lifting in Southbank?
The load, preparation, access at both sites, handling equipment, crew, transport and placement stages affect the scope. Send the item and route details for a project-specific quote. An earlier job’s price or crew does not establish the requirements for your move.
